Are you fascinated by Titanic?


No, not the movie - the actual historical ship and event. I've been fascinated with the ship since I was young - it had nothing to do with the movie. It was just on TV that a salvage company wants to cut into the ship's haul and retrieve the Marconi telegraph that transmitted the very first SOS in history. The ship is quickly deteriorating and within the next 100 year it will only be a pile of rust. I believe in preserving history and am pro retrieving artifacts from the wreck. It's been over 100 years since the ship sank and I don't believe it's desecrating a grave by removing anything from the ship.

I would just like to point out that the first SOS didn't come from Titanic.
